BURNED by a Client, Backed by the Internet — and Still Choosing Joy: Hanna Daly

🎨 The pod is back, baby! In this episode of *Making It: REAL Stories of Creative Success*, host Taylor Gallegos sits down with muralist Hanna Daly to talk about going viral—for the wrong reasons—and what happened next. When a client failed to pay her for a mural, Hanna shared a 10-second video of herself painting over their logo. That post exploded, bringing unexpected attention, legal threats, and ultimately… poetic justice.But that’s just one layer. Hanna also opens up about grief, creativity, and healing—from losing close family members to navigating motherhood and finding an unexpected creative outlet in screenwriting. She shares the hard-won lessons from 20 years of painting murals, building a business from scratch, and learning to say no in a world that constantly demands more.This episode is funny, real, and full of raw wisdom for creatives who want to stay grounded, grow their careers, and create from the heart—without selling their soul.👉 Topics include:

  • The story behind her viral video (and what happened after)
  • Navigating art and business when a client doesn’t pay
  • Why public art matters—and why she’s giving away her paintings for free
  • Her creative healing journey through screenwriting
  • The power of staying rooted, real, and joyful in the face of burnout

🖌️ Whether you're an aspiring artist or just trying to keep your creative spark alive, this one’s for you.---🎧 Produced by Snapjack Studios: https://www.snapjack.media/ 📍 Shot at Studio West: https://studiowest.com/© 2025 Taylor Gallegos Art, LLC. All rights reserved.
